My little 323i vs C230 Sport

Well sorry to disappoint, but this obviously isn't going to be some awesome kill story, but I just thought it would be fun to share.

On my way home from class a newer looking Mercedes was behind me as we exited the campus. I thought nothing of as I was in my 323, it's just a DD and I usually just cruise around. I'm assuming because of the tone of my exhaust (which is rather aggressive and said to be unnecessarily loud) the driver thought I was trying to instigate race. They immediately accelerated passed me. About 1/4 mile down the road, the traffic cleared and it was game time. He immediately jumped about 2-3 cars ahead from 45, and I quickly reeled him in. By the top of 3rd gear I was already 2 cars ahead and I just let off.

As i said before, nothing impressive, but it's sure nice to know my little 323i with 140k on the clock can still hold its' own. Just for the record, this car has always been very fast compared to other cars with similar mods.

Mods:

Ebay headers
Eisenmann Race
Dinan CAI (old style)
Dinan automatic transmission software
Active reflash
SSR GT1
and a bunch of other stuff that wouldn't make a difference in a race.

It said Sport in the side, so I assume it's supercharged. After looking at dragtimes, whether it was supercharged or not, the out come would have been the same. I have a higher trap than both variants.
